Who is eligible for a Federal Pell Grant?

Eligibility for a Pell grant is determined by the U.S. Department of Education when a student submits their Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).

Many factors go into determining Pell Grant eligibility鈥攊n addition to family income, the number of people in your household, the number of family members attending college, and the school鈥檚 cost of attendance can influence eligibility. Because of these factors, there is no set income cutoff for Pell eligibility. To give you an idea of the profile of the typical Pell-eligible student, during the most recent financial aid year, 75% of 老司机福利社 students who qualified for Pell grants came from families with household incomes below $54,000鈥攂ut again, income is just one factor in determining eligibility.

We strongly encourage you to file your FAFSA by March 1 each year.
